Hospitalised treatment was applied to 326 patients aged between 85 and 101 years, between 1982 and 1987. Operations were performed on 215 of them. The surgical lethality amounted to 16.3 per cent, though lethality in conjunction with emergency operations was as high as 23.9 per cent or as low as 11.8 per cent in the context of elective operations. X-ray findings recorded from heart and lung as well as ECG provided reliable criteria for assessment of the surgical risk.
1982年至1987年间，对326名年龄在85岁至101岁之间的患者进行了住院治疗。其中215人接受了手术。手术死亡率为16.3%，不过急诊手术的死亡率高达23.9%，而择期手术的死亡率则低至11.8%。心脏和肺部的X光检查结果以及心电图为评估手术风险提供了可靠的标准。
